Airstrikes in the northwestern Syrian province of Idlib have left more than 50 people dead.

Most of the victims were civilians, including children, the Deutsche Welle reported citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Unidentified jets hit three different targets in Idlib province on Sunday, according to the Observatory, which uses local sources to file its reports.

A market in the town of Kafrnabel on the southern edge of Idlib witnessed the highest number of casualties with 26 people, including three children, reported killed.

Warplanes, which were reported by local people to be Russian, carried out airstrikes on the town of Maaret al-Numan, also on the southern outskirts of Idlib, the Observatory said.
